Mother and baby killed in attack on Ukraine’s Odesa: Officials

A Ukrainian woman and her three-month-old baby girl were among eight people killed in missile attacks on southern port of Odesa

At least eight people, including a mother and a child, have been killed in a Russian missile attack on the southern Ukrainian city of Odesa, according to officials and media reports.

The attack on Saturday was the first big strike on or near Odesa since early April, Qazet.az reports.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the Ukrainian president, condemned the attack, calling the Russians “b*****ds” for the death of the infant.

“Among those killed was a three-month-old baby girl. How did she threaten Russia? It seems that killing children is just a new national idea of the Russian Federation,” he told reporters in Kyiv.
